Default Teraflex leveling kit and 1.25 body lift

I already have a leveling kit with 33's. Plan eventually is two put a 2.5 lift and 35's when tires need replacing. Question that I have is has anyone added a body lift to a leveling kit? I figured when I get the 2.5 I would leave the body on and just scrap the leveling kit at that point. Looking for positive input and possibly pictures.

Nothing wrong with that body lift. It's a good way to give clearance for bigger tires. But with 2.5" lift there is really no need for a BL for 35's unless you just like the look. This picture is with 1.5" spacers in the front and 3/4 in the back with a 1" MORE body lift. Never rubbed once.

Sure did. Did the leveling kit, well had it installed, and then had them do a 1 1/4" body lift. I have had 295 70 18 (34.6") Nitto Trails first and then Terras. Click image for larger version

Next I plan to take off the leveling kit, on for over 4 years now, and put the 2 1/2" Teraflex or maybe a 3".
